I am sure your parents always told you to eat your breakfast and you certainly tell your kids. Nevertheless most of us just don’t have the appetite to eat early in the morning.

Luckily for you there is a easy solution to your problem. Why not enjoy a breakfast that is loved by young and old, and a great start into the day? I am not talking about chocolate…well not quite. I am talking about a classic chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie!

A chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie offers everything you need for a great day. Chocolate is rich in antioxidants and even reduces high blood pressure.

Anyway, enough about chocolate! Our chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie is full of other ingredients which we shouldn’t underestimate.

The banana in our smoothie provides you with fiber, which helps to curb hunger. Additionally it’s proven that bananas moderate blood sugar levels, therefore protecting you against diabetes.

The peanut butter in our smoothie is rich in protein. Countless studies have proven the beneficial effects of protein, when you try to lose weight. Furthermore peanut butter contains monounsaturated fats, which support a healthy heart.

Beside being super healthy, the chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie tastes like heaven. You will look forward on waking up and enjoying your healthy smoothie.

Throw everything into the blender of your choice and mix it until it’s smooth. You can vary between the amount of certain ingredients. As an example: You can use only one banana, therefore making the chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie less creamy.

You can add more milk into it, more peanut butter or turn it into a protein shake by adding a scoop chocolate protein powder. As always: Don’t be afraid to experiment and to add new ingredients into our chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie.

The possibilities are endless, if you use your creativity. You have problems with that? Don’t worry, I got you fam.

Here is a list with ideas for your very own chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie:

Add fruits into your smoothie

Why stick with bananas? Avocados are a great alternative, when you need an ingredient that gives your smoothie a creamier and richer consistency. Especially if you want to make your smoothie without yogurt.

We have a post focusing on making fruit smoothies without yogurt. A great article for people who are lactose intolerant or just want to try something new.

Add nuts or seeds into your smoothie

Acorn, almond, peanuts, walnuts, chia seeds, hazelnuts, brazil nuts and many more. There are literally hundreds of seeds and nuts that you can incorporate into your chocolate banana peanut butter smoothie.

Next time you buy groceries add nuts and seeds to your list.

Add spices into your smoothie

Beside adding vanilla extract, cinnamon, honey or maple syrup into your smoothie, you can include some lesser known spices and herbs. Such as fenugreek or cardamom. Both of them are rich in nutrients and taste sweet.
